Definite north wind blowing in from Canada tonight! House is creaking and rattling and leaves swirling. Exciting leaf raking weekend coming up!
1. Food on point.
2. A running rest day, but I had work and managed to log just under 9 miles of walking. Tomorrow morning is my 6 mile run.2 -

Prelogged but it didn't thrill me
steps 3105
No strength
I was so cold Mon/Tue it really shut the door on my motivation. I need to fix that, I don't like feeling defeated.4 -
10/14:
Food - train wreck... way over on calories for the day
Exercise - morning walk for 3.5 miles, finished the day with 9100 steps.3 -

10/14:
logging and on-plan:
exercise: A gentle yard hike. It was just too gorgeous out. I found the flattest part with the smallest incline and did a smaller circuit around that. My cat came out and watched me and def looked like he was wondering what in the heck I was doing.

Chilly day here in MN!
1. Food somewhat of a mess today. No work, so I snacked...
2. Completed my 6 mile training run plus another 3 miles walking while I cleaned and did laundry.2 -
This week I felt very off my game to the point where I was extremely agitated and discouraged.
Funny thing is when I checked my weekly step count on my pedometer, it really wasn't much lower than the past 3 weeks..and I still have another day in this week to bring the numbers up to par.
It's just a reminder to me of how much of this health journey is in the mind's perception of things...and not always reality. I've been angry and disgusted with myself over something that wasn't even real. All week long!
Two things:
I must stop being so harsh with myself.
I must never stop going after the brass ring!5 -
10/16:

Exercise - 2.6 mile walk before work, finished the day with 9400 steps.3 -

10/15-16
Calorie goals- a bit over my ideal deficit yesterday but still pretty good plus almost 19k steps. Today the carbs were bad and calories were in maintenance range- I wanted all the food. I have gotten 17k steps in on a strength day by staying busy with cleaning.
Snacking👿👿 no bueno but at least i have wrapped things up by 8 pm and have done IF as well. Staying active is counter balancing for now. If I could just kick this habit I’d likely shed some lbs fairly quickly.4 -
1. Food more under control today. It’s better if I stay busy...
2. 3 mile training run with my daughter and another 5.5 miles walked.
Weekend to-do list keeps being added to, starting with raking massive amounts of leaves. Hope everyone has a great weekend!2 -
10/16:
Two-week check-in
SW (October): 178.8
CW: 178.2
What a fabulous loss!
Not surprising though. I'm a woman. (Nuff said about that. Don't want to get all TMI.) Plus, my body is notorious for pulling this crap around this weight, masking weight loss with water weight it just doesn't want to let go of. So I'm not discouraged or worried. I was going to do measurements too, but the kids found the tape measure...and the house ate it. You know, the usual. 
Anyway, yesterday:
10/16:
logging and on-plan:
exercise: 40-min arm video (dumbbells) and 2 mile walk vid.
Still a twinge deep in that glute when doing the knee raises and kicks during the 2nd video.
